Being able to clearly define and signpost your reasons for committing yourself to success in all that you do, is crucial to being able to hold on  to the dream until it materialises; overcoming the challenges on the way and gathering the lessons learnt with thanksgiving; working to improve and build on success and advancing in the achievement of goals specified; ensuring that the journey remains meaningful although all the clues state otherwise; holding on to the dream as a tool for releasing all that is needed for each step of the journey.
I have desired to be successful as a blogger for a while but I have noticed that my commitment keeps waning. I think the reason for this continual loss of momentum, is the fact that Imy reasons for wanting to be a successful blogger are unhelpful. I have tried using the fact that I might be able to make money and become a millionaire as an incentive and motivator for burning the midnight oil, blogging. The problem with this is that my blogging is not making a penny at the moment. Invariably, if money is my sole goal, it does not surprise me that I cannot sustain the momentum required to blog continuously. I think it is time to find a better reason.

My new reason for blogging is to share what I have learnt about life along the way, with the world. I hope that someone will learn from my experience and so live successfully by achieving all their dreams as they apply the tools that I share; I also want to believe that as I accomplish this goal, there is a law that operates naturally to my benefit. Those who give to make others lives better also get enriched by the experience.
I think I do not need to focus on the fact that the goodness that I have shared will release enrichment but rather concentrate on making the lives of others better. What do you think of this idea?

The moment I stumbled on this new reason, the joy of blogging flooded my whole being again. I do not know how long this good feeling will last but I intend to enjoy it while it remains.
Please do not forget to include your comment after reading this blog. I am indebted to my readers for the comments that they share to help me as a blogger and an individual committed to personal development.
